Welcome to this week’s episode of The Cured Collective Podcast. We’re sitting down with Nimai Delgado to discuss pursuing entrepreneurship, balancing mental health, cultivating relationships, and creating a life of compassion.
Nimai is a vegan professional bodybuilder, former mechanical engineer, lifestyle coach, and motivational speaker. Through each of his high-impact platforms (including Vedge Nutrition and VeganFitness.com), Nimai has helped thousands of individuals create a life they love through exercise and vegan nutrition.
His mission is to spark greater awareness and compassion in the world, and he achieves this by bringing a modern, more conscious perspective into conversations surrounding health and fitness.
Today, Nimai dives into his spiritual upbringing, his decision to leave mechanical engineering to pursue bodybuilding and coaching, and the thriving business he developed as a result. He also highlights the important of committing himself to applying his core values to every aspect of his life; in business and beyond.
“My big mission is to make the world a more compassionate place. It happens to be through the lens of helping people eat less animals because I truly believe it’s unnecessary [...] If we can all strengthen that muscle, exercising a little bit of compassion here, a little bit of compassion there, then ultimately that creates a really big ripple effect.” – Nimai Delgado
